The fact that Pahalgam was even mentioned by name, with many Pakistan allies in the room, showcases the “success of our foreign policy”, Omar Abdullah underscored Tuesday, praising the BRICS New Delhi Declaration.
The J&K Chief Minister chose to focus on the positives from the summit. “The fact that Pahalgam itself was condemned is a big thing. Please see how many allies of Pakistan were in that room.
Therefore, for even Pahalgam to be mentioned by name, that in itself is a success of our foreign policy,” Abdullah remarked.
When pointed out that Pakistan was not mentioned by name in the New Delhi Declaration, Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Omar Abdullah said: “That is something for the Government of India, and particularly for the Foreign Ministry, to talk about. “We condemn in the strongest terms the terrorist attack in Jammu and Kashmir on 22 April 2025, during which 26 people were killed and many more injured,” the BRICS leaders said in a joint statement.
